    Here she is. 1990 Sonic 31SS .. Much more to come soon. Just too excited and wanted to start the thread here at SeriousOffshore.com. I need to do 1 motor for it and will be taking the Long Block, which is in pieces, to the machine shop tomorrow.

    Been awhile. Sweet looking piece.

    Does the SS have the standup head , or was that the SE?

    I know they're both nice rides......

    Now speaking of built in head ... Mine doesnt flush. There seems to be a button you push which is connected to a soloniod. Didnt work cause the fuse was blown. Put in another 30 amp fuse and it popped it as soon as I hit the button.

    Is this a bad motor on the pump? Where is this pump at and What kind of project am I looking at for this?

    Also, What kind of system is this and are there any diagrams of how it works?

    Thanks!

    See if you are able to unplug/unhook the motor, then try flushing again. If the fuse does not pop problem found.

    show us a pic of the head.

    most have a switch that you can push up or down. Pushing UP will run both the water pump that rinses the bowl and the pump on the bottom of the toilet itself. Down will just activate the pump on the bottom of the toilet. Try another fuse and just use the Down button. IF the fuse blows again you have a problem with the toilet pump, not the rinse pump.

    you can unbolt the toilet to get to the bottom pump. when I bought my boat it did the same thing as you describe. there ended up being something jammed in the bottom pump keeping it from spinning and it would pop the fuse. I unjammed it and all worked fine.

    Here is a pic of my head. dont have a pic of the switch though.

    Thanks! Yep ... The Cobra is gone. When Jason delivered the Sonic, He hooked on to the Cobra and delivered that. Drop off and pick up. Worked great!

    Anyone know model numbers of the Port and starboard running lights? My starboard side is missing and the Port one is Chrome. I've seen the same ones on other Sonics in White which is what I'd like to get. My port one just says Attwood A-16.
